Edina's demographic composition and high median income are not typical of the broader U.S. population. Many urban and suburban areas across the country have been experiencing increased diversity over the past decade, making Edina's relative stability in racial composition unusual.

Based on observed trends, Edina is likely to continue its gradual shift towards increased diversity over the coming years. However, the pace of change suggests that it will remain categorized as a Low Diversity community with a White Majority for the foreseeable future. If current trends continue, we might see a further small decrease in the white population, potentially dropping below 80% in the next 5-10 years; continued growth in the Asian population and those identifying as two or more races; and sustained high median incomes, potentially limiting economic diversity.

While these changes are not dramatic enough to shift Edina into a new category in the near term, they could eventually lead to a transition from Low Diversity to Moderate Diversity if the white population continues to decrease and other racial groups increase their representation. This transition would likely take several more decades at the current rate of change. The city's high income levels and gradual increase in diversity might also lead to it becoming a Transitional Community in terms of socio-economic makeup, potentially attracting more diverse, high-income professionals over time. This could lead to a unique blend of racial diversification within a consistently affluent economic bracket.
